An officer on medical leave, and a former corrections officer (prison guard to you and me). Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I don't see how the reputation thing is valid. No physical evidence, just photos. Why not drive the thing to Athens and let the zoology department investigate? Nah, they just stuck it in a freezer. This from the same part of the state that brought you the wild hog hoax.

I'm not sure what to think but I know this the one man accompanying them throughout this whole thing is a guy that was busted for having fake evidence of a Bigfoot in the mid 90's, so that certainly doesn't help their credibility.

Also heard on the radio today a man who claims to be a very popular costume creator, he claims the photo of the Bigfoot in the ice box is HIS costume. Others that have this style costume say the same thing, supposedly it is a very popular Bigfoot costume.

He also made a very good point, looking at that photo the way the neck is that Bigfoot would have to have a broken neck>

I look at this in this way. If you assume Bigfoot is real then remember the creature has been extremely successful at being very secluded and staying hidden from mankind, why would all of a sudden one be found, and by these two guys who are supposed searchers for Bigfoot, and in a region not notorious for them?

Or assume Bigfoot is not real and it is a hoax by those involved, what is their motive, what is their to gain by attempting to fool the public and the media?
